See what our patients are saying about Getulio Tovar

I have been under Dr. Getulio Tovar's care for over 25 years and confidently endorse him as an exceptional psychiatrist. Prior to consulting Dr. Tovar, I sought treatment from three other psychiatrists, but none were able to accurately diagnose or effectively treat my conditions. Dr. Tovar precisely diagnosed my struggles with PTSD, panic attacks and depression stemming from traumatic experiences during my Vietnam War service. His expertise and counseling have significantly alleviated my emotional pain, guilt and anger. I hold Dr. Tovar in the highest regard.

Dr Getulio Tovar has been treating me for more than 20 years and is absolutely the best. I had used three other psychiatrists before him and none were able to diagnose or treat me with any success. Dr Tovar diagnosed my condition as PTSD, panic attacks and depression, attributed to traumatic events suffered during my time in the Vietnam War. His counseling and treatment has relieved most of the mental pain, guilt and anger. I have complete faith in his ability.

I believe that I have one of the best doctors ever Getilo Tavor & all of the girls up front I just love them all. And I realize that I may have been a pain in the butt a few months ago and I am sorry for that I have been going there for about 16 teen years now and I have always been treated sooo good . Thank you & God bless you all.

Dr Tovar is great. I do telehealth. I try to avoid the front office staff as they all seem incompetent. I never call them directly I always use the portal and message Dr Tovar directly instead.
